USB cable ShiverPeaks BS30-35095 20m USB 3.2 Gen 1

The ShiverPeaks BS30-35095 20m USB cable provides a long-reach wired connection using USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also referred to as USB 3.1 Gen 1) technology, supporting data transfer speeds up to 5 Gbit/s. It is fitted with a standard USB A connector on one end and a USB A / Micro-USB B connector arrangement on the other, and features gold-plated contacts to improve contact reliability and resist corrosion. Available in black and silver finishes, this cable is designed for situations that require stable high-speed data connections across extended distances.

Advantages

The cable supports the USB 3.2 Gen 1 protocol, enabling up to 5 Gbit/s throughput for compatible devices while remaining backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 connections. Gold-plated contacts reduce the risk of oxidation and help maintain consistent performance over time. With a 20 m length, the cable removes distance limitations common to short USB leads and enables flexible device placement. The combination of USB A and USB A/Micro-USB B connectors offers versatility for connecting host devices to peripherals that use the Micro-USB B interface.

Suitable for

• Connecting host computers or hubs to external storage, cameras, or peripherals that use Micro-USB B over long distances
• Environments where a reliable wired data link is needed without using network infrastructure
• Temporary setups, presentations, or workstations that require device placement away from the host

Key specifications

• USB version: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (3.1 Gen 1), up to 5 Gbit/s
• Connector 1: USB A
• Connector 2: USB A / Micro-USB B
• Cable length: 20 m
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts for improved corrosion resistance
• Product colours: black and silver

How to use

Connect the USB A end to the host device such as a computer, laptop or USB hub. Attach the USB A/Micro-USB B end to the peripheral device that accepts Micro-USB B for data transfer. Verify that both devices support the intended USB mode; the cable will operate at the highest mutually supported speed (up to 5 Gbit/s for USB 3.2 Gen 1). Ensure connectors are fully seated and avoid forcing angled connections. When extending or routing the cable, avoid sharp bends and heavy compression to preserve signal integrity.

Recommendations

For best performance, use the cable only where both connected devices support the required USB mode, keep cable runs away from strong electromagnetic sources, and avoid coiling the cable tightly. Regularly inspect gold-plated contacts for debris and clean gently if needed to maintain consistent connections.
